Floristic Census in ninety southern squares in Natal

With the aim to understand the composition and quality of the tree cover of public squares of one of the main cities in Brazil, Natal, we performed a floristic survey and census. The exotic and native origin of species was distinguished and indexes and values were calculated and compiled to better understand the composition, spatial distribution, similarity to adjacent green urban areas and quality of green spaces for the population.
